A diminutive copy of the Bible has been brought to light by Mr A. H. Andrews, of Brightwater, Nelson. It is a complete copy of the Scriptures, with illustrations, whose measurements are l|in. long, lin. wide and Jin. thick. This tiny volume was bought in Christchurch nearly 32 years ago. It is believed by the owner to be the only one to be sent to New Zealand out of an edition of five printed in England. The Bible is well bound, and can be read with the naked eye, but more easily with the small reading glass contained in the cover.
